    Hard to start

    Yesterday morning my 2010 Tacoma did something it's never done before. Hope this makes sense....When I turned the key to start it the engine turned over normal like it always has but instead of starting right up it just turned over for 5-10 seconds and did not start. The second time I did it...

    Clicking noise in front end.

    That's how mine was for a while. Then it got to doing it rolling forwards or backwards slowly. Hasn't done it since I replaced both the bolts holding the catalytic converter shield.

    Clicking noise in front end.

    Ok...turns out the inspection guy was right...and wrong. He said there was no way to tighten the shield. One of the bolts holding the catalytic converter shield was missing and the other had rusted and broken. I replaced both and tadaa...noise gone. While I was underneath the truck I also...

    Clicking noise in front end.

    Had annual inspection done on Friday. Passed with flying colors. The inspector said he heard the noise and thinks it's the catalytic converter shield. I still disagree. I crawled up under and the shields are tight. The noise I'm hearing is coming from one of the front hubs and does not do it...

    Clicking noise in front end.

    Ouch!!! It did it one time last fall after I had driven it back from the beach. That time it was much louder and didn't stop with added speed. Now I only hear it at take off for just a few seconds. I'll be sure and tell the inspection guy about it on Fri.

    Clicking noise in front end.

    For past couple days I've been hearing a clicking noise in the front end of my '10 Taco. This is more than just the click of brake pads. It sounds more like when a kid puts a playing card on a bicycle wheel spokes. Just does it when I take off at low speed and then stops. 48k miles on it...

    Frame Replacement (Recall)

    I just got the call from the dealer yesterday that my '10 has a recall on it. Not sure what they'll find other than a lot of dirt and dust from driving down a 2 mile long gravel road to work every day.

    Tire Pressure Sensor?

    It was one of the wheel sensors. Dealer replaced it and all is well. Merry Christmas!!!

    Tire Pressure Sensor?

    Yep...checked spare tire as well. I made sure all the pressures were at 29 psi as the door sticker says and it wouldn't reset. I tried raising the pressures to 36 psi like some suggested and it still will not reset. I have an appointment Fri morning to take it the local Toyota dealer.

    Tire Pressure Sensor?

    I've already tried the button on the lower dash, followed the directions in the manual to the letter and it will not reset.

    Tire Pressure Sensor?

    Hello and Merry Christmas folks. Just wondering if anyone has had any dealings with the low tire pressure sensor? The low tire pressure warning light came on on my 2010 Taco....I checked all 4 tires on the ground and the pressures are perfect. Checked the spare and it was low so I pumped it to...

    Frame corrosion?

    Just wondering if anyone has encountered this problem. So far I don't think mine has. Got a notice from Toyota that I may want to have it checked.

    Engine oil?

    That's just it....I'm seeing 3 manufacturers recommendations. 0w20 or 5w20 in the owners manual and 5w30 on the filler cap. I've been playing it safe and going 5w20.
